All keris sajen and other tosan aji I've seen and handled have had pamor or pamor sanak, all have been from folded iron. Look to the from you given link and Alans site: http://www.kerisattosanaji.com/kerissajen.html This will be visible already when cleaned with lemon or vinegar. Frankly said I don't have the suspections about the "orginality" of this piece you have.
